THE PAST:
‘
Shreyaan swa dharmo vigunaha para dharmaat swanushthitat.’
It is
better to commit mistakes on the path that one’s soul is meant to walk on, than
to live a perfect life on a path that is not meant for one’s soul.’
- From Oath of the Vayuputras by Amish
Oye hero..Phewww Phewwww!!! Wow what beautiful words you chose
to express what you feel. Smart move, that. Caught me a little off guard
though! But when you are running like me, you get used to stumbling and falling
and hurting like hell. I promise I will get used to it. I thought I was used to
the pain by now. Turns out no, I still have a long…..long way to go before I
can come to terms with the blatant disregard you have shown for me and my
feelings. That time has not come yet.
But these words prepare me. Prepare me for what lays ahead. If I divert my
attention from you now and learn to suppress the silent cry of my soul, I have
the path laid down in front of me. A new relationship can be mine; a new person
can be mine. A new way of living life is being offered to me. Yet as I stand on
this threshold, I stop myself. He doesn’t know…He is unsuspecting and innocent.
Let him know the reality and take an informed decision. That would make it
right.
PS: Forgive me for twisting your words “Before I met you I never knew what
it was to be broken inside and yet find the strength to show a smiling face to
the world.”
THE PRESENT:
Thank you my dear, dear GOD. I love you for you let me keep my heart, mind
and soul in one place. The right place alongside the love of my life. Thank you
for I am not one of those people who have to give up their dreams for the sake
of family, society, circumstances, fate, Karma, Destiny….Chance mistakes. No,
there is no such confusion for me. I am incredibly lucky. Thank you for my
privileged life God – I am forever grateful. I love you…
